Variant summary

Our verdict is Uncertain significance. The variant received 4 ACMG points: 4P and 0B. PM2 PP3 PP4

This summary comes from the ClinGen Evidence Repository: The NM_000527.5(LDLR):c.1845G>A (p.Glu615=) variant is classified as Uncertain significance - insufficient evidence for Familial Hypercholesterolemia by applying evidence codes PM2, PP3, and PP4 as defined by the ClinGen Familial Hypercholesterolemia Expert Panel LDLR-specific variant curation guidelines (https://doi.org/10.1016/j.gim.2021.09.012). The supporting evidence is as follows:PM2: The only >10,000 subpopulation is European (Non-Finnish), in which the variant is absent. So PM2 is met. PP3: No REVEL, splicing evaluation required.Functional data on splicing not available.A) variant located -3 to +6 from canonical donor siteMES scores: canonical site variant = -1.8; canonical donor wt = 4.48.Ratio: -1.8/4.48 = -0.4 ---- It is below 0.8.Variant is predicted to alter splicing. So PP3 is met. PP4: Variant meets PM2 and is identified in 1 case fulfilling Simon-Broome criteria for possible FH published in PMID:17539906 (Taylor et al., 2007). So PP4 is met.

Genes affected

LDLR (HGNC:6547): (low density lipoprotein receptor) The low density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) gene family consists of cell surface proteins involved in receptor-mediated endocytosis of specific ligands. The encoded protein is normally bound at the cell membrane, where it binds low density lipoprotein/cholesterol and is taken into the cell. Lysosomes release the cholesterol, which is made available for repression of microsomal enzyme 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG CoA) reductase, the rate-limiting step in cholesterol synthesis. At the same time, a reciprocal stimulation of cholesterol ester synthesis takes place. Mutations in this gene cause the autosomal dominant disorder, familial hypercholesterolemia. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, May 2022]
